La'De Kitchen Pangbourne in West Berkshire

Saturday lunch for a family group of 4 adults. We all shared the Hot & Cold Meze Platter. All tasty and very well presented in small dishes on platters. Most striking was the friendly welcome and service with some touches of generosity. Particular likes - tender Calamari and very freshly-baked bubble bread.

Amazing food and very good service !! We will come again.

Great, but please don’t have a rice/potato side which comes as mandatory, I want to order several meat dishes, but I don’t want extra rice/chips - I know this helps justify your price point but please don’t take away as poor relation to eat in

Always had a good experience in person but tried to order a delivery on Just Eat and it was cancelled. Restaurant said they don’t work with Just Eat any more but they are still listed on that platform/app, taking orders and payments. Restaurant needs to get off Just Eat properly.

Delicious food, served promptly, and a lovely atmosphere! The pistachio adana is fantastic and I would recommend. Great service and really nice staff, feels very authentic.

I would not like to criticize this restaurant because the people were lovely. However, whilst the people are great and the food OK, don't touch the cocktails they were undrinkable. We tried 3 and they were all undescribably flavoured water. We ordered a £27 bottle of wine but we were brought an 'I love Merlot' bottle which retails at £6. The Mocktail menu is unashamable - a Mohito is a glass of lemonade with a slice of lime and mint for £7. A Fever Tree lemonade on the same menu is £3.50.

This restaurant is filthy. There are so many flies both dead on the window sills and flying around. The manager said there is nothing he can do about it!!

We love this place! The food is fresh and delicious but the service is second to no one! I have yet to go to a restaurant in the UK and feel so looked after. Whether it's their new lunch menu for a quick bite or a lovely date night this is one of our favorite spots.

Went here for an early dinner after spending the day swimming and sunbathing at Pangbourne Meadows. Service was spot on (friendly, speedy, and they charged my phone for me) and the food (we both ordered house specials) was delicious, with generous portion sizes. Overall, I highly recommend this place.

We walked in and it was quite empty. Ordered lamb chops and it’s the best lamb chops I’ve ever had. It tastes amazing with large portion. Highly recommend!

Met friends for Lunch. The food and service were excellent. We weren’t in a hurry as we had lots of catching up to do, the staff just left us to it, no rushing us, it was lovely and we hope to come again.

We booked a bit last minute on a Saturday night and were pleased to get a table. Great, busy atmosphere but service was still good. Staff were friendly and efficient. Food was delicious, particularly the mezze of small plates. Yummy! Parking is available 5 minute walk away in village car park which is free after 6pm (I think).

Great food, really nice people. I enjoyed the experience.

So apparently today was the first day of the fixed price lunch menu. £14.90 for 2 courses, 1 of a selection of either hot or cold starters and a choice of 5 or 6 main meals. We went for the filo pastry parcels as a hot starter and then the chicken shish with salad and rice (£18.90 on the main menu). We were given a free (huge) slice of baklava to share afterwards. Amazing food, great value and excellent service

Lovely place for lunch. They have a new lunch menu that is worth a try. Staff is kind and welcoming .

Sub standard service with waiter appearing to be more interested in drinking wine with a lady friend

I ate at this restaurant today, the service is very bad, again taking 15 pound service, food quality taste less. I will never go again

Turkish Lahmacun is not authentic, but expensive. The portions of food are not satisfying compared to the price. I have seen many so-called Turkish Restaurants but many seem like they’d learnt cooking in the UK, Anglo-Turkish kebab houses!!!

So pleased there is a Restaurant which serves good portions and the Pizza even better and super good portions . Thank you very good salads too .

Maden var udemærket og betjeningen venlig. Vi sad fint væk fra døren og fik forskellige retter at spise. Maden var veltillavet og store portioner. Vi blev dog noget overraskede da regningen kom og den var så høj, men forklaringen var at restauranten selv havde taget 10,94 i service gebyr. Et pænt beløb for 4 mennesker der har spist for ca.84 pund.

Got my order wrong. Husband finished his meal before mine served. Sent it back. Did not apologise although did not charge for second glass of wine.

It might be the best turkish restaurant in the UK

Awful service from the new management team. The quality has gone down and the price is gone up. The previous management was good. I don't recommend this place

Brilliant food and service. Went with the Scallops and the Adana Iskender - sublime.

A great night out with amazing food. Good sized tables, a buzzing atmosphere in a restaurant that always seems busy. And so it should be - the food was utterly fabulous. Scallops, Calamari, Shish, and Ali Nazik. I'll be back for a lot more of this!

UNBELIEVABLE!! Food and service was sublime I wish I could do more than 5*!! The waiter that served us was so attentive it made the whole experience feel so luxury!! The food was so fresh, tasty and so well priced. I’ll be back very soon!!!

Researched the local Turkish/Anatolian cuisine and came across to this gem. We had starter and main. All the foods were hot and well presented.The service was quick & very professional.I can’t recommended this place enough.And top of all , cocktails are amazing 🗣️

Very tasty lunch, especially the house special lamb and aubergine. Good service and wall decoration / painting of Istanbul. We'll be back!

Nice food and people. Please try if you visit this lovely town. Highly recommended.

Wonderful food, exquisite tasty, and lots of it. Great relaxed atmosphere with a chilled vibe, perfect for a birthday or a celebration. Staff are friendly and very reasonably priced. Highly recommend to others 😊

Visited for an evening meal and the whole experience was amazing - the food was exceptional, the staff were extremely helpful & friendly and the atmosphere was really great. We will definitely be coming back, a great treat on the doorstep!

Amazing service and atmosphere was so lively. Coming again

Excellent food, great prices and outstanding service. Will be returning again very soon! 😁

Amazing service and delicious food. My waiter was amazing and very gorgeous and alpha

Absolutely loved it, amazing food - I can very much recommend this restaurant!

I absolutely love visiting here. The staff are soooo friendly and the food delicious. (The goats cheese is my favourite🤤) they also make a delicious hot chocolate! Never had a bad experience here. ❤️❤️

Worst experience ever. Ordered food via Deliveroo with expected time 30 minutes to receive delivery. Received two hours late from time of order. My calls were ignored, no one provided any status update or assistance. Would not be ordering again.

Shrinkflation is something I really dislike. The food at this restaurant has reduced in quantity substantially recently. We have never eaten in the restaurant. We have used their takeaway service many times. The amount of meat was reduced substantially this time. The bread used to be fantastic, this time it was old and again reduced in quantity. We had previously really liked the food. For a takeaway, we thought it was expensive, but decent - so worth it. Now we are less convinced it is worth the price. I would rather see the price go up and not the quality go down.

We visited to celebrate our wedding anniversary. It was our first visit following recommendations from friends and it did not disappoint! The photo does not do it justice! The food (and wine) from start to finish was delicious. Such an amazing menu with so much to choice. The staff were also so helpful and friendly. The restaurant itself is also beautifully designed. A really enjoyable experience! I would highly recommend. We will definitely be visiting again.

Everything good. Chicken perfect and chilli’s very tasty

Unfortunately our visit was a poor experience given the great reviews we read before visiting .we were the second table in and pretty much forgotten about as it got busier .we waited an hour between our starter and main course . The food was nice .

Absolutely superb from start to finish. We were a ‘walk in’ from the street expecting a ‘ sorry we’re too busy and we don’t have a table’. Absolutely not, the waitress warmly welcomed us, pointed to a spare table and we sat! The menu is great, food is quick and hot, it’s busy and bustling, the vibe is fun, the whole restaurant has an energy of warmth. And the food! Where do I even begin. My lamb was spectacular and succulent. The babaganoush was very tasty and the breads and drinks were excellent. Best night I’ve had in a long time. Our waitress- it was her first night and she was fabulous. When I thanked her, both she and her colleague personally walked us to the door to say goodbye. The level of hospitality and gratitude, service all feels so special. When coupled with the fantastic food there is no doubt we will be back. Thank you all so much for a fantastic evening.

Best Turkish food in town thank you for look after us we will come back❤️ 🍽️

Just had a meal at La’De Kitchen for the first time. The food and service were superb, definitely coming back!

Great for eating in and Take away!

The food was outstanding, we had three courses and each of them were absolutely delicious. I would definitely recommend this restaurant. As in all good food there is a price. I found this worth every penny.

Very nice lunch food and stuff 👍

Enjoyed all choices we got for 7 people indeed

The atmosphere in here is very nice. The staff are very friendly and always have a smile. I ordered a lamb dish, it was cooked perfectly and I would definitely recommend

Thank you personal thank you very good food I come back la de kitchen

An amazing gem :) Found totally by accident on Boxing day when we travelled to a family get together in another local restaurant who failed to open dispite our 11 seat confirmed booking!! We called in here and couldn't have been happier, staff was amazing, food delicious and a great time had by all :) thank you :) I faed to take pics of the food as looked (and tasted) too dilicious to waste a second :) A stunning place :)

Absolutely FABULOUS food and service. A halloumi lovers dream, although I love the grilled salmon too. Lovely setting and staff ⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

Amazing food , wonderful atmosphere, great service and staff. My favourite restaurant so far . Highly recommended. Many thanks and best wishes. Ana

The food here is really good, unfortunately this does NOT extend to the service. Not only were there moments where the service bordered on rudeness (not all staff), but we were also pretty much kicked out of the restaurant! A poster in the window displays 2 for 1 cocktails 9-11pm and online the closing time of the restaurant states 11pm. However when we placed orders for drinks at 9:45pm we were told it was last orders. The bill was then brought over and whilst we were finishing our drinks the lights on one side of the restaurant were turned out!! Our table was booked for 8pm and it felt very rushed. I think perhaps the opening hours need amending as clearly we were not welcome to stay after 10pm. Its a real shame as the food was lovely.

I've been here a couple of times for take out. On the last visit there was a mix up with the order and the team sorted it out, no problem. The food had been consistently great as had the service and welcome from the staff. I recommend it.

Excellent service, friendly staff , tasty food

Being a Frenchman it’s hard to say this but the food is amazing, would defo recommend this place to everyone, the food is out of this world , the staff a fantastic and the atmosphere can really get going , well worth booking a table

Food great, the bread is really yummy, atmosphere relaxed, a really nice place, but sadly, the whole thing was let down, by being charged for drinks that we were told were complimentary. So go there and eat, yes but if they offer you a drink on the house, my advice would be to say no, unless you are happy to pay £5 for a Limoncello that you didn't ask for.

Good quality Mediterranean food. Large menu choice. Friendly service. Lamb kebabs were excellent.

Always great food and amazing staff.

Omg the prices are insane, did you think this is London??? And the %10 mandatory service fee in the end makes it! Omg!

We had mixed mezze platter. It had both cold and hot small plates. All tastes really good. In particular calamari.

Really great food and a very pleasant ambience

What a find thanks to reviewers on Tripadvisor. Was passing through Pangbourne and we needed lunch. This is the place. Great service with welcoming advice on what to eat. If you want good food with friendly service stop here, you won’t regret it.

Popped in for a impromptu meal, and wasn't disappointed. Great food, great little restaurant, great host. Thanks again. Looking forward to my next visit 😊

Great tasty food, best bit for me was the complementary bread they brought out. I would visit again.

We’ve been here few times now, always great food, friendly staff, rapid service and attention to details. Our favourite place for a romantic dinner.

Food was perfect, staff is always friendly. Thanks for dinner.

I visited this place with my family. We all love the place. Thanks for the nice service and delicious foods.

We visited this place yesterday to have dinner with my cousins. Our experience was absolutely wonderful. Friendly staff, great service, delicious food. I can't wait to visit again. I definitely recommend.

Great service, great menu with plenty of choice, great choice of drinks (especially the beer, husband favourite!) and best of all the food was delicious, I can’t speak for the pudding as I was full hubby loved his though

Exactly the best experience in my restaurant life it was perfect food and service

Real good food. I went with a large group and so I tried lots of different foods. Couldn't complain about any of them. Would definitely recommend going here. It's a bit more expensive than some of the other restaurants around, but I think that if you're looking for a decent meal that's quality meets the price. you can't go wrong with this place! Service was great too, which is always a plus.

Over priced food and drink, no parking only in public car park, my food was lukewarm, very noisy, looked at bill after I paid and a 12.5% service charge had been added, for what! Won't be going back

We had a family Sunday lunch here - a selection of meze plates that we shared. The food was delicious. A friendly welcome and great service.

Second visit, great welcome as before, fabulous service. Food was first class, give it a try you’ll not be disappointed. Hope to be back soon. Thank you

I went last time before a hiking to goring. Their Turkish food is really amazing and fully traditional. Definitely worth paying a second visit.

Amazing food, outside area is amazing, lots of eat and drink amazing feeling to this place would 100% recommend

Great place to eat ! Highly recommended to visit

Amazing customer service from the manager Sefa and Rafal. The food was outstanding. I highly recommend this place.

Mum and I came in for a very early lunch on a weekday. Despite this the waiter/host was very lovely and accommodating. The food, five or six mezze dishes and a big, unexpected, bubble of bread, was fantastic.

The food was fresh, delicious and good quality. I enjoyed my greek salad and calamari. P.S. The padded leather chairs are very comfy too ;).

Family celebration with 16 guests (5 children). The staff were very attentive and helpful. The food was delicious. Our first visit and we were very impressed.

Lovely restaurant, food & service. Let down by bad accaustics, so too noisy. Shame.

Excellent service, people and food

Absolutely fantastic food and exceptional service. We’re so lucky to have this gem in town :)

The staff were friendly and helpful, food was well presented and flavours absolutely gorgeous. We over ordered a little and staff were super helpful providing take away boxes for us! Would recommend 100%

Whether we’re visiting La’De Kitchen to have an intimate meal for two or to have a long overdue get together with an old friend, we are never disappointed! The food is always incredible and the service is outstanding! It is by far our favourite restaurant and cannot recommend it enough! Thank you for always being such amazing hosts!

Staff were super friendly and helpful, food was well presented and flavours absolutely gorgeous! We over ordered a little and staff helpfully provided take away boxes for us. Overall a wonderful experience!

Attentive service. Lovely staff. Food was delicious as always. Complimentary bread is amazing. They have a variety of food options and a lot of choice for vegetarians/vegans. Perfect for couples and families

I 'discovered' La'De only about 8 weeks ago but have been three times now. It has been excellent on all occaisions. Apart from the excellent food and service, last week there was also live music. Great Turkish food and hospitality.

Superb food and service. A brilliant find. Don't hesitate to visit

Went for a birthday lunch and we were blown away by the quality of the food! It was exquisite, full of flavour! You could taste the freshness of every dish! Service was friendly and very informative about the dishes. Couldn't recommend more highly! We will most certainly be back! Thank you

Superb. Food was excellent my mate and I shared the kebab platter. Lamb was cooked the perfection, chicken was beautiful.

We returned to the La’De Kitchen tonight to celebrate my father’s 88th birthday. From the moment we walked through the door the service was warm and welcoming. As usual the food was well presented and delicious. We were impressed with how many people were dining here mid week and there was a lovely atmosphere. Thank you for the birthday cake - Dad was singing along without realising it was coming to him. You made his day ! We look forward to a return visit soon.

I have ordered quite a few times from here before as their food is good. However, this was now the second time their deliverys have let them down. The first time, they missed part of the order and WE had to go and collect it, their 'apology' - an awful desert. This time was worse though, ordered online. Phoned immediately as I realised I had gotten my mobile number wrong by the last digit, whilst on, I asked how long the food would be - 'cooked in 20-25mins' and to us within 40. Perfect. I phoned an hour and 20 mins AFTER I had had an email confirming the food was ready. Apparently it was on the way. The food was stone cold. REALLY poor performance. They offered more food to be sent, but couldn't say how long it would be, and the delivery driver was the one who was blamed. Such a shame, as I won't be ordering from here anymore.

A very nice place with great food, fast and polite service and last, but not least a cozy athmosphere. We were a group of 5 ,ordering drinks, main courses and desserts. Everything arrived quite fast to the table and all the food was delicious. The staff regularly came to our table and asked if we were happy with everything. Everything was just perfect.

Second time I've been there and again the food was just as amazing. The staff were really friendly and laid back. Can't wait to go back again, the breads are heavenly the dips excellent, and don't miss out on the baclava 😁😁😁 and Turkish coffee.

Very polite and helpful staff. Amazing food as always

Really excellent food and service
